"Cleaner Wax" - Where does it fit in 3 Steps

[Seth]

I have mothers 3 step products -
1. Pre Wax Cleaner
2. Glaze and sealant
3. Carnuba wax

I also have Zymol Cleaner Wax (zurtle wax) and not sure where it fits in the above. Can it replace step1 or are there any disadvantages of applying step2 after cleaner wax? Or can it come after step1 and 2?

Replaces 1 and 3.

The results will be just as good if not better.Zymol is a realy good product.

Cleaner wax is probably for the dude who scrubs his dirty new car with the big brush at the public carwash.

Seth,

I've detailed a few cars and also frequent the autopia car care website, and from my experience, and pro detailers, "Cleaner Wax" is lazy mans wax. Cleaner wax has a small amount of abrasiveness, that "Cleans" similar to a really non abrasive polish. It really doesn't fit on a multiple step detail, as it was marketed for the person that wants an all-in-one. You can't layer cleaner waxes as you'll end up removing the previous layer, in other words you'll end up working pointlessly.
